Philadelphia Bed & Breakfast

Plussat: The breakfast was to die for. Something different every day, from Eggs Benedict to eggs and mushrooms, and always delicious. The house itself was charming, and the owners were very friendly and accommodating. Also ideally located for the University of Pennsylvania, which was where I needed to be. I really enjoyed it, and would definitely stay there again.

Miinukset: It's a house, so the doors aren't necessarily the greatest at blocking out sound. There was a noticeable gap at the bottom of my door, and I could easily hear anyone in the hallway. It didn't bother me, and no one was loud late, but it could be a problem if you're very susceptible to noise. Also, some people might not be comfortable with walking back alone from the university area at night: it's about a mile and tends to be pretty quiet, passing the edge of a cemetery and a park. I have no reason to think it's unsafe, but if such things make you nervous, be aware.

Plussat: Everything!I really enjoyed the evenings on the veranda with a nice drink!or the breakfast in the morning at the big table where you can talk to the other guests!

This is a World Class Bed and Breakfast, please stay with them, you will not be disappointed!

The neighborhood is quaint with wonderful restaurants, a great yoga studio and nice shops. The breakfast was magnificent! The yogurt parfaits were delicious with unique flavor pairings.

Plussat: If I can give this place more than 10 stars I would . Simply Amazing!!! I'm already making plans to go back and stay for a longer time .

Miinukset: There is little to no sound insulation between rooms but after knocking on the door our neighbors were quiet.

Plussat: Wonderful friendly host Comfortable beds Beautiful home Great location Clean and well furnished

Plussat: Nice location in historical building. A great parlor where the guest can relax. With a grand piano that can be played. For this location a resonable price. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Plussat: An utterly charming little hotel with lovely staff in a great location. Excellent value for money

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Charming place in a great neighborhood.

Miinukset: Parking is horrible. I think if I was more aware of the issue I would not have stayed there. There is no place to unload baggage. Then we had to drive around 15+ minutes to find parking 1/2 mile away. Breakfast was a disappointment. Yes they do have breads, cereal, basic fruit, hard boiled eggs, mediocre coffee but I had read previous guests mention an amazing breakfast so I had my hopes up.

Miinukset: I would like to have a kettle in a room!

Plussat: Friendly helpful staff. Boutique hotel with character. Good weekend cooked breakfast

Miinukset: Poor quality of towels, and would therefor would have expected extra bath towels or robes as per the photographs. No cooked breakfast on a weekday.

Plussat: comfort, deco

Miinukset: breakfast served from 7:45

Plussat: I've stayed here with my friends since six years ago. All of them liked to stay here! They say La Reserve is one of the best B & B in Philadelphia. It's very convinient to visit Independence Hall, Liverty Bell, Antique Row and etc. And the staff's personality is great. Thank you Maria and Ed. I live in Japan and wish to stay next June with my friends. But booking is getting harder.

Plussat: The staff was wonderful. The breakfast was very good. They were very accommodating. Enjoyed getting to know the other people staying at the B&B.

Plussat: Overall our stay was more than excellent! the receptionist who works in the afternoon, made our welcome so warm. She was very helpful and funny too! If we are ever back in Philly, we will most definitely come back.

Plussat: The helpfulness of the owner in helping us with suggested activities and shortcuts. She knew great places to see and where to eat. We did what she said and it turned out great. We had not.been to the Philadelphia area before. Her breakfast fare is ample with fresh fruits and special breads and cereals. She does a great job. Ultra close and convenient location next to trains.

Miinukset: No significant deficiencies. Gang bathroom, but everyone is friendly and it works just fine.

Miinukset: My parents came out to Philadelphia with me to help me find a place to live. The Burbridge St. B&B had a room available for 3 people and served breakfast for a decent price. It seemed like a great deal. However, the price for the room was not worth the emotional stress, uncleanliness of the house, moldy breakfast, and overall unpleasantness of Ms. Hague. Here are my grievances: 1. A cat roams the premises. - It is only mentioned in the Information section of her website that she has a cat that roams the premise, and the text is buried. So, if you are allergic to cats, DO NOT stay here. When she led us to our room, the cat followed and jumped on to our bed. There was cat hair on our bed, floor and towels. 2. The parlor room advertises enough room for 3 people. However, the double bed is not big enough for 2 people. - The room plus the cot should have been advertised as enough room for 2 people, not 3. I ended up sleeping on the love seat in the room my entire stay. 3. Breakfast was moldy. - We were served moldy cantaloupe, blackberries, raspberries and blueberries. The cherries were "hairy" with mold. The milk was chunky. The bread was previously frozen and looked a few years old. 4. She speaks unkindly of past guests - She told us stories about guests who were "fat whales" and "obsese-350-pound teenagers." 5. She scolded and embarrassed guests in front of other guests. 6. She accused me of breaking her chair and wanted to charge me $75 to repair it - Weighing 130 lbs., I was sitting in her antique dining chair, which broke off a piece of wood and showed a crack between the spindle and back of the chair. She asked me if it was broke and cussed at me with the F-bomb. She then scolded me in front of guests and demanded me pay $75 to repair it. I told her no, to which she told me to “get out of her house” and to “join the list of thieves.” 7. You share a bathroom with her and other guests. Needless to say, my stay at the Burbridge St. B&B was not a comfortable and restful one. The trip was already stressful due to looking for a home in a new city, but Ms. Hague’s unkind treatment and poor hospitality towards me and my family only added more stress to our trip. She is not a kind woman, and I do not recommend this place to even my worst enemy. The Burbridge St. B&B is dirty, cluttered, unsanitary, and unwelcoming. Do not spend your money or your time at this place. You will be disappointed.
